Ugh my aunt wants to keep the baby while I'm working & I would love for that to happen but my uncle smokes (a lot) in their house. He wouldn't smoke inside while the baby is there but it's still all in the house! :(

I am not sure where you are at but here in pa it is illegal to smoke in any vehicle while a child is in the car, so I used that as motivation to help my boyfriend quit and now all he smokes is the vaporizer. You should look into if it is illegal in your area

My partner and I sorted out that luxuries and wants list early... before we started trying you need to... to know what each other wants and to know where you stand... sounds like there may be a lack of communication.. just say in... talk more tell him how you really feel...but don't come across rude.. he'll take offense ... think its an attack on him... maybe find something both of you can do that relaxes and unwinds your partner and yourself ... walking .. watching movie together ...

My bf wont smoke in the car with me. He gets annoyed if we go more then like 10 minutes in the car he has to smoke a cig when he gets out... seriously its been 10 minutes was it that hard to restrain yourself?? but luckily now he smokes the e cig. Which isnt any better for him but at least its better when hes around me. I would ask him to try it. Its like $30 but its worth it cause uour not getting the secknd hand smoke.

My fiance also smokes. I just sat down and had a talk with him on how the cigarettes make me nauseous. Asked him to read up on it. He has since brought a hooka to smoke

Ask him to smoke before you get in the car. Remind him it's very unhealthy for the baby when you inhale his second hand smoke.
